Horizontal screw juicers

TOP 5 premium auger juicers

Premium segment models are distinguished by well-thought-out ergonomics; in most cases, they have additional functionality out of the box - there are attachments for making sorbets and smoothies. As a rule, they have 2 operating modes - main and reverse. However, there are some among them that can offer something special. A striking example is the Mirandi J-100, which opens our rating.

Mirandi J-100

The first place is occupied by the most functional juicer in the ranking. The screw rotation speed is adjustable from 45 to 55 rpm, power 200 W, maximum continuous operation time 20 minutes. With its help, you can not only squeeze juice from any vegetables and fruits, including fibrous ones, but also make homemade sorbets from frozen berries and fruits, prepare nut milk or chop vegetables for salad. Additional options are provided using complete attachments. This functionality of the model made it special in terms of control. Unlike most competitors, controlled by 1 mechanical button, there is an entire touch panel - 4 touch buttons and mode icons that are highlighted during activity. There are 8 modes in total.

• For hard vegetables.
• For vegetables and fruits of medium hardness.
• For soft ingredients.
• For vitamin cocktails.
• For vegetable juice.
• For making nut butter.
• For cutting vegetables.
• Self-cleaning mode.

This number of modes is explained by the system for selecting the speed for the type of product, which generally has a good effect on the efficiency of the juicer, allowing you to get more juice from different products.

The peculiarity of the model is its ergonomics and design. The technical part of the case is made of black, and the transparent part is made of darkened plastic, which does not oxidize under the influence of juice for a long time and retains its pristine beauty. The operation of the device is extremely pleasant thanks to the wide neck with a diameter of 80 mm, which allows you to place ingredients inside without pre-cutting. There is a valve at the outlet for juice - protecting against leaks during pauses in operation. Price 15,000 rubles.

pros

• Materials and build quality.
• Wide neck.
• Touch control.
• Separately selected spin speeds for different types of products.
• Expanded functionality (shredder, sorbet).
• Large set of attachments.
• Large containers for juice and pulp.
• Ergonomics and design.

Minuses

• Price.

An excellent option for making juice for breakfast for a family of up to 5 people. The price scares many users, but I want to assure you that you will not find anything similar in terms of extraction quality, ease of use and functionality among cheaper juicers.

Oberhof DRUCKEN Q-12

German brand juicer. Power 400 W, shaft rotation speed – 48 rpm, noise level – 40–60 dB. It features high quality materials and workmanship. The body is made of plastic and stainless steel. A powerful motor of a special design allows the auger made of ultra-durable plastic to squeeze juice even from hard and fibrous products such as nuts and celery. In terms of ease of use, it is not inferior to the leader in the rating, the neck is slightly narrower - 75 mm, but still no fine cutting of ingredients is required, the pulp outlet tube is made in the shape of a parallelepiped without a top, which prevents its frequent clogging, and there is a plastic valve at the end of the juice outlet tube. Push-button control with 3 positions - on, off and reverse. Additional functionality can only be achieved by purchasing replacement filters for making purees, ice cream, milkshakes and smoothies - they are not supplied.

pros

• Design and ergonomics.
• Quality of materials and workmanship.
• Simple controls.
• Additional accessories can be purchased.
• Large containers for juice and pulp.

Minuses

• Price.
• No additional attachments included;
• Weight.

I could not find any significant disadvantages of this model. Yes, it weighs more than 8 kg, but this is due to the use of metal and reliable plastic in the design, that is, the minus is immediately crossed out by the plus - reliability. The result is an ideal, easy-to-use, no unnecessary bells and whistles juicer. The price may seem high, but in terms of price-quality ratio, this model is one of the best on the market. I strongly recommend purchasing.

Panasonic MJ-L500

Juicer from a well-known brand with a body made of high-strength steel. Beautiful, compact, similar in functionality to the Oberhof DRUCKEN Q-12 - 1 operating mode and reverse, switchable with 1 button, the kit includes a nozzle for making sorbet from frozen vegetables and fruits, there is a valve on the outlet tube for juice. But with ergonomics, things are worse - the loading neck is quite narrow, and the volume of the juice glass is only 400 ml. Price 13,000 rubles.

pros

• Brand.
• Design and ergonomics.
• Compactness.
• Materials and build quality.
• Equipment.
• Simple controls.
• Low noise level.

Minuses

• Narrow neck.
• Small volume of juice reservoir.
• The quality of pressing soft vegetables and fruits.

A good model for fans of the brand, it looks stylish and has no complaints about its performance. The only significant drawback compared to competitors is the narrow neck for serving ingredients; you will have to spend time pre-cutting.

Kitfort KT-1104

The model has a strict, laconic design, the engine compartment body is made of steel. The auger of the device can rotate at a speed of up to 70 rpm - a little faster than its competitors, but this fact does not significantly affect the performance or quality of spin. In terms of functionality, everything is identical to the Oberhof DRUCKEN Q-12, however, filters for smoothies and frozen foods are included. The control is the same as that of Oberhof, it is carried out with 1 button, while this model has a larger one, which for me is more convenient. Containers for juice and pulp are slightly smaller in volume - 0.85 l. Price 13,500 rubles.

pros

• Design and ergonomics.
• Compactness.
• Materials and build quality.
• Equipment.
• Wide neck.
• Simple controls.

Minuses

• Heavy weight.
• Stained body.
• It is difficult to find components for sale.
• The juice from most vegetables and fruits is obtained with a small amount of pulp.
• Judging by user reviews, there is a defect.

One of the most popular models on the Russian market, the choice of Yandex Market buyers - the average rating on the site is 4.8, recommended for purchase by 95% of those who left reviews. At the same time, judging by the negative reviews, there are defective specimens, and the purity of the extraction is lower compared to Mirandi J-100 and Oberhof DRUCKEN Q-12; the juice comes out with pulp. Therefore, I consider it appropriate to overpay for the above models. A worthy competitor with a similar price is the Panasonic MJ-L500.

Hurom H100 Series

A relatively new model from a famous South Korean brand. The world's first juicer, which uses baskets made of ultra-strong medical alloy ULTEM instead of a filter mesh - they do not clog and are easy to clean under running water or in self-cleaning mode. The delivery set includes attachments for making smoothies and sorbets/ice cream. The user can choose from 2 color options - bardot and platinum. The manufacturer also took care of ergonomics, equipping the juicer with two loading holes - it is very convenient to load large ingredients. One can only find fault with the relatively small containers for juice and pulp. The controls are simple - one three-position rotary switch. Price 40,000 rubles.

pros

• Brand.
• Design and ergonomics.
• Durable and reliable auger.
• “Smart” loading opening.
• Convenient rotary switch.
• Equipment.
• Low noise level.
• Easy to care for.
• Recipe book included.

Minuses

An innovative product on the juicer market. Price is the main stopping factor for sales growth. None of the above models are inferior in functionality, having price tags several times lower. If you are willing to pay for the brand and advanced developments that make life easier, then the Hurom H100 Series is your choice; if you prefer to save on such equipment, feel free to choose any model costing up to 15,000. The Mirandi J-100 deserves special attention - it will not only squeeze out juice, but will also cut vegetables for salads. By the way, auger juicers are the case when cheap does not mean bad; you can find decent models in the budget segment.

TOP 4 budget auger juicers

Inexpensive juicers have basic functionality. They are inferior to premium ones in terms of efficiency and quality of extraction - the juice is obtained with pulp, and the cake from most state-owned products comes out quite wet. However, these features are sufficient for a home, and their low cost determines their popularity in our market. Below are the top 4 most popular models today.

REDMOND RJ-930S

Domestic production model. Extremely easy to use, 1 button control, reverse. Reservoirs for juice and pulp have a volume of 0.6 liters. There is a plastic valve at the end of the juice outlet pipe. Additional functionality includes a system of protection against overheating, protection against accidental switching on if the device is not assembled or assembled incorrectly. Price 6,000 rubles.

pros

• Compactness.
• Easy to use.
• Does not slip or vibrate during operation.
• Low noise level.
• Book of recipes.

Minuses

• It is difficult to clean the spout from the pulp.
• Doesn't handle soft foods well - the result is "porridge";
• Narrow neck.
• Small, compared to competitors, volume of bowls for juice and pulp.

A simple juicer with a minimum set of necessary functions. Easily handles soft and hard products. You can prepare vitamin cocktails from fruits, vegetables and berries according to your own preferences or following the instructions in the recipe book included.

Kitfort KT-1101

Representative of another popular domestic brand. It differs from the REDMOND RJ-930S in lower power and a slightly increased number of screw revolutions - 60–70 per minute. Performance is almost identical to its competitor. At the same time, it is more convenient to use due to the increased volume of bowls for juice and pulp - 0.8 l. You don’t have to worry about juice spillage during idle time - there is a valve at the outlet. Protection against overheating and accidental switching on, as well as a reverse function are available. Disadvantages compared to REDMOND RJ-930S are increased dimensions and weight. Price 6200 rubles.

pros

• Easy to use.
• Design and several colors to choose from.
• Does not slip or vibrate during operation.
• Low noise level.

Minuses

• It is difficult to clean the spout from the pulp.
• Narrow neck.
• The pulp outlet quickly becomes clogged.
• Judging by user reviews, there may be defects.
• The top cover vibrates and moves during operation, which leads to an emergency shutdown of the device.

Despite the presence of negative reviews about the fragility of the device, 89% of Yandex Market buyers recommend it for purchase. The model is not bad, but if you compare it with the REDMOND RJ-930S, it costs 200 rubles more, takes up more space in the kitchen, and there is also a risk of getting defective. Considering the above, I would prefer the REDMOND RJ-930S, or the even cheaper ENDEVER Sigma-92.

ENDEVER Sigma-92

A Chinese juicer, which in terms of functionality and bowl volume is comparable to the Scarlett SC-JE50S43. At the same time, in my opinion, it looks more expensive, the materials of the bowls are of higher quality, and it costs 1,300 rubles less.

pros

• Design.
• Easy to use.
• Does not slip or vibrate during operation.
• Low noise level.

Minuses

• Narrow neck.
• Lack of spare parts for sale.
• The quality of the included cleaning brush.

The most budget juicer in the rating. I haven't found a single reason to refuse saving. Its advantages and disadvantages overlap with more expensive models. Even the lack of freely available spare parts affects all budget juicers in one way or another. 86% of Yandex Market users recommend it and I join them.

Scarlett SC-JE50S43

In no way inferior to competitors above. The functionality is similar - 1 speed, reverse, “Anti-drip” and automatic motor blocking in case of incorrect or incomplete assembly. The containers for juice and pulp have been increased to 1 and 0.8 liters, respectively. At the same time, the material from which they are made looks cheaper compared to competitors. However, the price is lower - 5,500 rubles.

pros

• Easy to use.
• Does not slip or vibrate during operation.
• Low noise level.

Minuses

• Narrow neck.
• The quality and appearance of the assembly materials.

97% of recommendations from Yandex Market users. The identified disadvantages apply to all budget models. If maximum compactness is important, it is better to choose REDMOND RJ-930S, if the design and color selection is Kitfort KT-1101.

Operating principle of auger juicer

Screw juicers work on the same principle as meat grinders: a spiral axis rotates, advances the product placed in the device, and crushes it due to the pulp pressing from behind. The crushed fruit passes through a fine grid, where the juice is separated from the cake. The efficiency of such a device is much higher than that of canonical models. In addition, this design can even process herbs, seeds, soybeans and nuts.

Extraction using auger

Having created a new standard for making fresh and healthy juices, Hurom did not stop there. She continued to improve her equipment so that we could juice a wide variety of foods. After all, a modern juicer should be able to process not only soft citrus fruits rich in juice, but also hard root vegetables, vegetables with a viscous structure, as well as berries, herbs and even nuts.

Various parts of the equipment were gradually improved - the engine was improved, the squeezing basket became stronger, the design of the auger and nets was improved. Attention was also paid to expanding the capabilities of the technology so that its purpose was not limited to juices. Khurom engineers tried to make a mesh without holes, thus creating a grinding attachment. This invention made it possible to use Khurom in home cooking to prepare many tasty and healthy dishes.

Types of auger juicers

Among all the models of auger juicers on the market, these types stand out.

Vertical

The screw and the entire driving mechanism are located vertically. The auger grabs and cuts the fruit; a pusher is practically not required during spinning. The width dimensions of such models are small, but they can reach great heights. They have the highest speed among other designs, comparable to the average centrifugal juicer.

Horizontal

The difference is in the location of the auger, as the name implies - here it is horizontal. The height of this design is less than the previous one. They are demanding when it comes to cutting raw materials before sending them to the chute, since its diameter is smaller than that of the vertical one. By analogy with a meat grinder, you have to frequently and actively use the pusher. Work is carried out more slowly.

Twin screw

The design uses two screws at once, which increases the amount of product processed at one time, even if it is hard or fibrous. This is a relatively young device that has become fashionable along with professional blenders in the wake of the fashion for healthy eating and eating raw fruits.

Pros and cons of auger juicers

Advantages:

• Very high work result. The minimum spin ratio is 75%, this figure is twice as high as that of centrifugal designs. All residues coming out are practically dry.
• The resulting juice is homogeneous and does not separate.
• Uses energy economically. For such a mechanism, you do not need to use powerful motors, since the auger rotates at a speed of only 40-80 rpm. A 200 W motor is sufficient, which consumes a small amount of electricity.
• Large selection of products used. An auger juicer is capable of grinding almost any product - soft, hard, fibrous or small. They can even extract oil from seeds.
• Quiet operation. The low speed of rotation of the screw does not create much noise, on average this figure is about 50 dB; in models with high build quality and sound insulation, the noise is no more than 30 dB.
• Long shelf life of juice - there is no warm air during its production, which slows down the oxidation process. Can be stored for up to 48 hours.

Flaws

• Preparation of products. The design features require that fruits be prepared for squeezing juice; fruits that are too large must be cut into several pieces that will fit into the narrow neck.
• Duration of the process. Compared to the more complex structure of centrifugal models, screw models are not able to quickly process large quantities of raw materials.
• Limited operating hours. After 30 minutes of intensive use, the locking thermostat switches on and turns off the engine, protecting it from overheating.
• Higher cost compared to centrifugal ones.
• The finished juice may contain some pulp.

The best high-performance auger juicers for apples

Before choosing a high-capacity apple juicer, you should consider the most popular models that have won recognition among a large number of consumers.

One of the best screw juicers for apples with high productivity is the Russian-made model Kitfort KT-1106. The device is characterized by increased power, which is 260 W, which ensures high performance, silent operation and no vibration. The vertical model is made in a plastic case with a transparent working compartment, thanks to which you can observe the operation of the device. The screw is made of stainless steel.

The juicer can operate continuously for 30 minutes. As numerous reviews note, an apple juicer on average provides 75-80% juice yield from hard fruits. The result is a pure product with a rich yellow or green color. The cost of the product is 9.8 thousand rubles.

The Mirandi J-60 juicer is popular. Device power – 200 W. The juicer can operate continuously for 70 minutes, which allows you to process a large number of hard fruits, providing a extraction rate of up to 75%. The screw rotation speed is 55 rpm, which makes it possible to preserve the maximum amount of nutrients in the drink.

Philips juicers allow you to efficiently process large volumes of apples.

Another indisputable advantage of the model is the presence of a large chamber for loading fruit, the size of which is 80 mm, so small fruits and vegetables do not need to be cut into pieces. The juicer is equipped with a reverse function. The outlet channels have stop-drip valves. The cost of the model is on average 15.8 thousand rubles.

The professional high-performance juicer for apples and other fruits, RawMID Dream Vitamin JDV-03, whose power reaches 280 W, deserves attention. The main advantage of the device is its high performance. The juicer is capable of processing up to 10 kg of apples within 30 minutes of continuous operation. Thanks to the rather wide neck, the size of which is 76 mm, small fruits can be placed whole, which reduces the amount of time required for preparing products.

This model can be considered multifunctional, since it is equipped with various additional attachments. It can be used as a vegetable cutter, as well as for preparing fruit drinks and desserts. The cost of a juicer is on average 17 thousand rubles.

What to look for when choosing

1. Screw material. The most important detail is more important than engine power. In budget models, aluminum screws are installed. It is better to choose juicers with augers made of steel or cast iron. High quality plastic also works well; it is durable and does not distort the taste and quality of the juice.
2. Size and material of the filter mesh (membrane). Made from steel and plastic. Steel is used that does not oxidize when in contact with fruit juice, but if you plan to process one type of product, you can get by with a plastic mesh. The size of the holes affects the texture of the juice and the amount of pulp it contains.
3. Case material. Plastic or metal. The plastic used is safe, durable and easy to clean. But it’s better not to choose white models; they quickly turn into the color of vegetables and fruits. Steel models have more weight, but are more durable in operation.
4. Number of augers. If you examine user reviews, one auger is enough to produce juice from simple fruits and vegetables. But if you plan to make juice from greens, squeeze oil from nuts, seeds and grains, then it is better to choose models with two augers.
5. Presence of reverse. Not present on every model, but very useful if you need to clean the auger. When the reverse is turned on, the auger begins to spin in the other direction, clearing itself of pieces of raw material stuck on it.
6. Number of speeds. Single-speed models are the most popular, as more speeds add to the cost. According to reviews from users themselves, the number of speeds has little effect on operation, so it’s not worth overpaying for it. But at the same time, according to professionals, high speed copes better with hard fruits and prevents the centrifuge from quickly clogging. Speed ​​also affects the amount of pulp in the juice - the higher the speed during operation, the more pulp there is at the exit.
7. Functional. Additional functions help and optimize your work. Most of all, customers appreciate the automatic ejection of pulp, direct supply of the finished drink, and the anti-drip system. Experts also advise paying attention to the presence of locks against accidental starting, protection against overloads and overheating, etc. Additional functions include the presence of various attachments, for example, for preparing pasta from frozen fruits, an attachment for chopping or slicing, and preparing noodles.
8. Noise level during operation. The average figure for inexpensive models is 50 dB, but if there is a need for silent operation, it is better to overpay a little and get a figure half as low.
9. Manufacturer. Choose proven brands or budget ones that have not been tested by other users - the most popular brands will be considered in more detail in the TOP juicers for the current year given below.
10. Power. The speed of preparation of the product depends on it. On average, this figure is 200 W – it gives a glass of juice in about 2 minutes. Sufficient for household use.
11. Continuous operation time. Many models have a specified maximum duration of use, after which the juicer turns off to reduce the temperature of the motor.
12. Size and weight. Selected based on the dimensions of the kitchen and the intended storage space.
